3 INTRODUCTION In the age of globalization and after the terrorist s attack in American soil, in September 11, 2001, non- state actors have changed the world how we use it to understand it in the 20 century. Al-Qaeda before and now the Islamic State (IS), are making our lives more difficult with prerogatives of sharing fear and tensions in modern and Western societies. Even more extremism in fragile states could play an important role on recruiting individual for militias or paramilitary forces around the globe. The Balkans was and, could be target of the radicalized groups who want to take part on this long war. There is no age for radicalized organizations for being member of the extremists groups. There are many ways to spread propaganda on false religion especially on post war conflicts zones, fragile states, poor income groups and most important in multi ethnic religious countries. Primary, this policy paper, will deal with preemptive tools and strategies on how to prevent young people for going into foreign wars from Macedonia and the region. The booklet may be used for all interested institutions those have as a goal, educating the categories of persons with any background. BACKGROUND Meaning of Extremism and Radicalization On theory extremism is a tendency to go to the extremes or an instance of going to extremes, especially in political matters, nowadays on religious ideologies. In some cases the matter is referring to individuals who go beyond the ethics, norms and regulations. Radicalization is a process, when an individual and group come s to adopt extreme political, social, or religious ideals and aspirations that rejects or undermine the status of the freedom of choice. For example, radicalism can originate from a large social consensus, against progressive and contemporary changes in society. 1 Radicalization can be both violent and nonviolent, although most academic and professional literature focuses on radicalization into violent extremism (RVE). In a modern, globalized economy and information technology, radicalization serves as a kind of sociological and political trap that gives individuals space to satisfy their material and spiritual needs. 2 1 Gross s Z, Davies. L, Diab AL.K, (2012) Gender, Religion and Education in a Chaotic Postmodern World. 2 Preventing Violent Extremism and Radicalization in Australia. 2
4 The most dangerous extremism is the religious in which in last decade has become a tool for variety geopolitical games in the Balkans. That type of extremism easily can be found under developed areas such as rural, but the latest reports show that homegrown extremism can be risky, e.g. the type of extremism developed by foreign nationals. PART 1 The process of radicalization In way all citizens of community to help prevent acts of violent extremism it is important for them to understand and know how the radicalization process may look in the Balkan region or in the case of Macedonia. There is no single and simple way for radicalization to violent extremism and the process is not unique and it is different to each person/country. However, there are some common elements in the experiences of most people who have become radicalized in Balkans, regardless of their beliefs. In current situation in the Balkans, foreign fighters went to IS infrastructure for religious beliefs and unresolved social status in their resident country. From Macedonia, based in reports of Ministry of Interior, over 139 persons have joined the IS. Several are dead, and due to the lack of intelligence, is impossible to know the status of the other fighters from Macedonia or the Western Balkans states. Ideology Social Status Criminal Activity CHART 1: THREE STAGES OF THE PROCESS OF RADICALIZATION IN MACEDONIA AND BALKAN PENINSULA. SOURCE: CSSD-MACEDONIA, 2016 Theoretically these elements include significant behavioral changes in major areas of a person s life including their local ideology, social relations and criminal activities in the 3
5 past. If someone is radicalizing towards violent extremism, changes can often occur in all three of the above stages. There is no specific stage when an individual can act in the name of religion on personal intentions. Relevant organizations should work with local citizens on preventing destructive behavior. 3 The profile of the foreign fighters from the Balkans and concretely from Macedonia can be described as persona that had close ties with ideologies and, consisted on the changes of social status due to the lack of progress and prosperity in the homeland. Bosnia and Herzegovina, Province of Sandzak, Kosovo, Albania and Macedonia are the most vulnerable places for growing extreme ideologies because, the elected leaders and current governments have failed to introduce a package on economic reform and localized programs for former foreign fighters. Generally if they are radicalizing than, person s behavior will also become more extreme over time, compared with that person s previous or normal behavior. In coming studies we should add facts and data, on regard to physiological changes to radicalized individuals. Their way of living and location (region) should also be taken into matter. Most individuals begin the radicalization process in one of three forms of their lives: their social interactions, local ideology or criminal activity. Political, religious and social relations in Macedonia Many individuals join extremist groups for social reasons and religious believes. In the Western Balkans people are most vulnerable for, involvement in violent extremism through the influence of close personal relationships. In Macedonia due to the lack of prosperity, state has failed to introduce a variety of reforms. The fragile country has become playground for spreading ideologies. This is especially true for young people or for persons between years old. Places where they frequently discuss local or national issues are cafeteria and public places. As people start to become radicalized, they will often pull away from their normal activities and friendship groups. They may also disagree and create conflict with family members and friends over political or ideological viewpoints. But in the Balkans/Macedonia is different, they may engage in direct conflicts or travel in foreign wars using different routes such as, EU states and Middle East borders. 4 At the same time, some people will start to interact more often with smaller group of people, who share their specific beliefs. Some extreme groups may even require a person to take an oath of allegiance. Radicalization is most often led by personal face-to-face relationships, but there are some of examples of people, becoming involved in radical groups through the Internet 3 Thomas P, (2008) Responding to the Threat of Violent Extremism: Failing to Prevent 4 A Methodological Paper to Inform the Future Evaluation of CLG-funded Local Authority Preventing Violent Extremism Work. Tavistock Institute,
6 or social media. The role of ideology and poor understanding of religion In the process of radicalization, a person can experience a rapid ideological shift, which change the way of analyzing the world events. As the radicalization process is building, some people will promote specific techniques of spreading the extremism. In the Western Balkans, the small numbers of individuals who have been radicalized do not have a great understanding of the ideology or religion, which they claim to represent in the area. The current status of individuals who were radicalized has to do with poor knowledge of religion. 5 Online extremism PART 2 It is important to remember that online interactions between those who share extremist ideologies can have impact. Online extremism may lead to fatal shooting or can encourage people of massive attacks in public places. Along with literature and music, chat rooms, online social media pages, can act as a place where, individuals can introduce the radical messages. 6 There is no special booklet on how to help recognize people who may be radicalized. However, family members, friends and members can look for behavioral signs in specific areas. These signs may be: 5 Prezelj.I, (2008) The Fight Against Terrorism and Crisis Management in the Western Balkans. 6 Todd.H.C.Erin. Y, Peter.Ch, (2012) Promoting Online Voices for Countering Violent Extremism. Rand Corporation. 5
7 Online Media Manuals and online instructions Violent Extremism Personal Contacts Religous Literature CHART 2. SIGNS/AREAS OF RADICALIZED INDIVIDUALS IN MACEDONIA/WESTERN BALKANS SOURCE: CSSD-MACEDONIA, Using online social media to promote ideology 2. Downloading amounts of violent extremist content including: instruction, training manuals and other methods of terrorism 3. Violent extremist literature: books and secondary manuscripts 4. Using face-to-face contacts in order to share and spread propaganda 6
8 PART 3 Discovering the location of Violent Extremists A professor may discover a student sharing or promoting online violent extremist materials, to a selected group of people via the student smart phones, IPod or personal computers. A parent may notice their child downloading violent or hate speech videos or friends may notice a change in an individual s social network profile promoting extremist views. 7 But in some cases an individual may have legitimate reasons for downloading concerning material, including for a research project and education purposes. However if we will notice very radical signs then, we should report the case to family members and appropriate authorities. PART 4 Open conversation with potential radicalized individuals The most important method that family and friends can use for dealing with the problem of radicalization is to maintain open talks with the person who is in process of radicalization. A positive relationship is crucial for all types of radicalized individuals. It is important to listen and understand an individual s reasons, why hi or she has become involved in violent extremism. Why, How and When, are three basic question to understand the profile of a radicalized persons. 8 Isolation is the worst scenario, so the studies that suggest that isolating an individual will make them better, in Macedonia and the Balkan region, the methods will have negative impact. By acting early in Macedonian and Albanian societies we can address core drivers of violence before they become more powerful in the era of unstable Europe. 9 7 United Against Terrorism.

9 CONCLUSION Community leaders, religious leaders, journalists and social workers play a particular and vital role in the process of preventing violent extremism. They are most likely to notice when someone begins to withdraw. Education is a driving force on post war zones and modern societies. In Macedonia everyone should take a progressive approach on this case. Political parties and local leaders must relocate financial resources on promoting projects for young semi radicalized. This resource booklet aims to help everyone understand the processes of radicalization and extremism in Macedonia and the Balkans. Basically being well informed is the first step to ensuring that problems and cases are addressed before they become an issue for the entire population and region. The monster may spread around the region, as cultural blinding is returns in Europe s heartland. 8
10 RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. Invest in appropriate underdeveloped regions 2. Keep on control children 3. Build resources and professional literature on religion 4. Inform the municipalities for signs of radicalization 5. Open line of communication with all ages of population 6.

Generate policy of balance and tolerance between multi -ethnic and religious communities 8. In Macedonia all factors must invest on projects of social and economic prosperity 9. Maintaining dialogues with groups who want to take different approaches on religion. 10. Start campaigning with schools, universities, and public institutions. Empower local partners on organizing local seminars to inform all ages for consequences of radicalization http:// Empowering local partners to prevent Violent Extremism in the United States.
